The equation is never true because you have to multiply 2 with all numbers in the parentheses. Therefore
2(5x +4) = 10x + 8.
Because 2 x 4 is not 6 but 8
Answer: 150 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of boys be x
Since there were 200 more girls than boys, the number of girls will be: = x + 200
Since the ratio of boys to girls was 3:7, this can be solved further below:
3/7 = x/x+200
Cross multiply
(7 × x) = 3(x + 200)
7x = 3x + 600
7x - 3x = 600
4x = 600
x = 600/4
x = 150
The number of boys enrolled is 150
Number of Girls will be:
= X + 200
= 150 + 200
= 350
Check: Number of boys / Number of girls
= 150/350
= 3/7
= 3:7
Write it as a fraction
11x + 32
X + 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this system of equations we will add them
x-3y=-12
2x+3y=3 now +3y-3y=0
3x=-12+3
3x=-9
x=-3
plug in the first equation
-3-3y=-12
-3y=-12+3
-3y=-9
y=3
You didn't include how many gallons each container of bleach has, so I'm just going assume one container has a gallon inside. if 5% of one gallon is active Ingredients, and there are 10 gallons, then that's 1,000%. (one gal = 100%. 100x10= 1,000) 5 x 10= 50, so 50% of 1,000% is active ingredients, which can be simplified to 5% anyway, so 5%
